WEST HAVEN >> A New Haven man was arrested Wednesday night in West Haven after police say he crashed into a parked SUV, left the scene and tried to flee police.

Ryan Moore, 25, was taken into custody after a brief foot pursuit, police said on their Facebook page Thursday morning.

West Haven police responded to a report of a car accident near Glade Street shortly after 6 p.m. Wednesday. The person who called told police that a Honda hit a parked Geo Tracker, causing heavy damage. The driver of the Honda, later identified as Moore, allegedly fled the scene on foot.

Officers reportedly found Moore hiding in brush along a nearby building. After a short chase, police arrested him.

Moore, who lives on Fairfield Street in New Haven, was charged with failure to drive right, evading responsibility, operating with a suspended license and interfering with police.

It was not immediately clear when he is to appear in court on those charges or whether bail was set.
